Full panchang for Wed 21 Oct in Pāthardi

Why is Durga Ashtami on Wed 21 Oct in Pāthardi?

Durga Ashtami is on Wed 21 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 06:24 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 14:23.

Ashtami at sunrise, 06:25. Ashtami: 14:23 Tue to 13:29.

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 14:23 on Tue 20 Oct to 13:29 on Wed 21 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Wed 21 Oct, at 06:25. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Ashwina Shukla Ashtami

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise.

Smarta
the day Ashtami holds at sunrise: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
Vaishnava
the Smarta day.
